How to display export timestamp in image information line

Software
1

Is it possible to display the export timestamp in the image information line in the darkroom. I tried typing $(EXPORT_TIMESTAMP) into the darkroom preferences but that didn’t work. I would find it handy to confirm an image has been exported and that is why I would like this. I know the information can be found in the image information module if all else fails.

You are limited to the variables mentioned here: dtdocs->variables

EXPORT_TIMESTAMP is not among them.

Thanks for the heads up.

$(YEAR)                    year at date of import/export
$(MONTH)                   month at date of import/export
$(DAY)                     day at date of import/export
$(HOUR)                    hour at time of import/export
$(MINUTE)                  minute at time of import/export
$(SECOND)                  second at time of import/export

Not clear to me which is which or what “import/export” means. Maybe @elstoc can clarify.

Looking at the code it appears that these fields just output the current date/time. If they are used to generate filenames as part of the import process, this would reflect the import date/time in the filename; If they are used to generate filenames as part of the export process, this would reflect the export date/time.
